Organismal evolution is a process of discovering better-fitting phenotypes through trial and error across generations. This iterative process resembles learning processes, an analogy recognized since the 1950s. Recognizing this parallel suggests that...
Podocarpus pollen morphology is shaped by both phylogenetic history and the environment. We analyzed the relationship between pollen traits quantified using deep learning and environmental factors within a comparative phylogenetic framework. We inves...

Seahorses possess a unique tail muscle architecture that enables efficient grasping and anchoring onto objects. This prehensile ability is crucial for their survival, as it allows them to resist currents, cling to mates during reproduction and remain...
Learning from others is an important adaptation. However, the evolution of social learning and its role in the spread of socially transmitted information are not well understood. Few models of social learning account for the fact that socially transm...
In this paper, we present the Colonial Bacterial Memetic Algorithm (CBMA), an advanced evolutionary optimization approach for robotic applications. CBMA extends the Bacterial Memetic Algorithm by integrating Cultural Algorithms and co-evolutionary dy...
This article reviews existing work and future opportunities in neuroevolution, an area of machine learning in which evolutionary optimization methods such as genetic algorithms are used to construct neural networks to achieve desired behavior. The ar...
Physical activity is a meaningful part of life that starts before birth and lasts until death. There are many health benefits to be derived from physical activity; hence, regular engagement is recommended on a weekly basis. However, these recommendat...
This article revisits Artificial Neural Networks (NNs) through the lens of Evolutionary Dynamics. The two most important features of NNs are shown to reflect the two most general processes of Evolutionary Dynamics. This overlap may serve as a new and...
